What I would say about productivity is that particularly for mothers, they may have less time for work, but they get more done in a given amount of time. Simply there is so much to do, if you're not organized you will go under. Thinking back to the before-kids era, it's clear I wasted a lot of time. A lot of the volume of work I did was due to having loads of time to burn on it, not due to being effective with time. So I would give a bonus point to people who've raised kids. They clearly have survived a time in their lives when being organised was essential.
